Conspicuous Consumption
Have you ever been photographed sat on a balcony eating a croissant; or wallowed in luxury just for the sake of it? What's the most ostentatious thing you ever seen or done?

I ordered a dram of a rather expensive malt on my birthday .
The barman double-checked with me that the price was correct (£25). I told him it was. He said that would explain why he hadn't sold a drop of the stuff in the three years he had been working there. He then asked if he could watch me drink it. I'm sure he was thinking I was a right prick; that and the fact it would take him four hours on minimum wage to pay for what I polished off in a few short minutes.
